What this means
- Prices. Home values are up 15.5% over the past year (U.S.: +1.2%).
- Supply. Listings are 100% below the 2017-19 norm and falling (−100% vs. a year ago): still a tight market.
- Negotiating. Buyer leverage is low (18/100; U.S.: 54) (as of Jun 2026): homes sell for about 6.7% below their final list price; 0% of listings had a price cut (U.S.: 26%) (as of May 2026).
- Affordability. A mortgage on the typical home takes 20% of the median household income (U.S.: 35%); it takes about $46k a year to keep the payment at 30% of gross pay. That includes about $1,387 a year for home insurance (U.S.: $1,790).
- Disaster risk. FEMA expects about $331 a year in natural-disaster damage per $100k of building value (U.S.: $155), mostly from hurricanes. Check insurance costs before buying.
- Outlook. Leaning up: likely −5% to +12% over the next 12 months (77% chance of a rise).
